Instead of allocating MTU-sized buffers for each packet, read to a stack buffer
and copy to an allocation of the actual packet size. While it requires an
additional copy on non-Apple platforms, this should make allocation more
efficient for small packets.
While RFC 5280 is not very specific about the matching rules of subjectAltNames,
it has some examples how to match email and FQDN constraints. We try to follow
these examples, and restrict DNS names to subdomain matching and email to
full email, host or domain matching.
Instead of rejecting the certificate completely if a certificate has a policy
OID that is actually not allowed by the issuer CA, we accept it. However, the
certificate policy itself is still considered invalid, and is not returned
in the auth config resulting from trust chain operations.
A user must make sure to rely on the returned auth config certificate policies
instead of the policies contained in the certificate; even if the certificate
is valid, the policy OID itself in the certificate are not to be trusted
anymore.
We explicitly avoided TryAcquireSRWLockExclusive() because of crashes. This
issue was caused by a MinGW-w64 bug (mingw-w64 fix 46f77afc). Using a newer
toolchain works fine.
While try_write_lock() obviously can fail, not supporting it is not really an
option, as some algorithms depend on occasionally successful calls. Certificate
caching in the certificate manager and the cred_set cache rely on successful
try_write_lock()ing.
Previously we got no reference to the cached issuer certificate
before releasing the lock of the cache line, this allowed other
threads, or even the same thread if it replaces a cache line, to
destroy that issuer certificate in cache() (or flush()) before
get_ref() for the issuer certificate is finally called.
This fixes some vici test cases on OS X, where the test thread tries to cancel
the watcher thread during cleanup, but fails as select() does not honor the
pre-issued cancellation request.
To use SSL in curl, we need to initialize the SSL library in a thread-safe
manner and provide the appropriate callbacks. As we already do that in our
crypto plugins using these libraries, we depend on these features.
This implies that we need the same plugin enabled (openssl, gcrypt) as the
curl backend is configured to use to fetch from HTTPS URIs.
Since 4b670a20 we require an explicit strongswan.conf to re-load configurations.
However, the define was missing in the build, breaking SIGHUP based config
reloading.
Fixes#651.
